Just been reading the press release for 2005 and cant help thinking EA are yet again going about the next edition the wrong way.
The emphasis this year or if your really cynical, gimmick, is this first touch feature.
Why?
Every year they try to sell fifa through some new feature, in the past theres been the freestyle control, manual passing, run indicators, off the baal feature and just recently, the new moves in euro 2004.
The point is they dont need to find new features every year, why cant they just keep things simple, for example, 2004 was a relatively good step forward in gameplay, they followed that up with a much improved Euro 2004 which allowed us to dribble past the opposition.
My point is why dont they BUILD on this and take it forward? Theres no need for new graphics, new features, they just need to refine the gameplay, work on the bits that arnt 100%, i mean why dont they turn their attentions to getting the replay highlights and freekick system right first or even maybe sort out he ball physics when the ball hits the net (its currently awful).
I feel if they did this instead of thinking of a new selling point each year (and lets admit it here, thats what they do year on year) The game would evolve, just in the way the pro evolution series did, they need to work on the weaker aspects of the game, keep in place the good stuff and take it on from there.
I cant help but think that they kind of rip everything up every so often to try and come up with something different, which creates problems.
